BMW are milking their MINI brand, and Fiat have found it highly rewarding to shamelessly do the same with the 500. It's quite tragic but then, it's up to them. And the 500 range has pretty much saved Fiat from the deep stuff, whilst MINI has paid off all the Rover troubles many times over for the Germans.
Yes, the Renault is horrendously ugly. But that hasn't stopped the afore-mentioned cars selling!

Ooh yeah. The 127 looks good and in a fugly way I quite like the R4. And I really don't like moderns.

That 500 Spider is a pretty concept. Of course this year sees the return of the Fiat 124 Spider - even if it is an MX5 in a party frock.   |

I like the Fiat 500 Spider and coupe. Could probably also be adapted to the MX5 platform.

German auto mag AutoBild showed a lot retro concepts during the years, a few can be seen hereBut in the end, it´s all about quotation - more or less. Blimey, they are all a bit 'challenging' in the style department! |

I like them all, but the Fiat 600 concept needs to be a 3-door. To my mind these concepts could result in more interesting styling coming to the high street.

I'm very disappointed that Nissan won't make the idx concept.
One of the better looking retro concepts.

I don't mind the new Fiat 500. The New Mini and New Beetle on the other hand, well their gravity is such that not even light escapes. A concept that I believe should have made it to series production was the Ford Focus XR8.

... A concept that I believe should have made it to series production was the Ford Focus XR8. ..which hasn´t got anything to do with retro-ness.
True, but in ten to fifteen years time I'm sure people will be saying, "do you remember the Focus?" and wanting one.
